| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Case Concepts Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows: |
| Land and buildings - 2% straight line |
| Plant and machinery - 20% straight line |
| Investment Property |
| Investment Property - Leased to Group Companies |
| Investment property is measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment property is shown as most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. |
| Investment properties are derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. |
| In accordance with Section 16.4A of FRS 102 investment properties leased to group entities are exempt from the fair value model and are instead measured using the cost model. Therefore intragroup properties are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment, with no periodic revaluation required. |
| Investment Property - Leased to third parties |
| Investment property is initially measured at cost, including directly attributable costs such as legal fees, stamp duty, and professional valuations at acquisition. Subsequently, the property is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. |
| Depreciation is charged on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful economic life of the property. The useful life is reviewed annually and adjusted if necessary. Land is not depreciated. |
| At each reporting date, the company assesses whether there is any indication that the investment property may be impaired. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated and any impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. |
| Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences arising from the depreciation of investment property. The deferred tax is calculated using rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. |
| Departure from Fair Value Model |
| This policy represents a departure from the fair value model typically applied to investment property under Section 16 of FRS 102. The company has determined that the fair value of the property cannot be measured reliably without undue cost or effort due to the area where the property exists and would be unreliable, and has elected to apply the cost model for consistency and simplicity in financial reporting. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Investments in subsidiaries |
| Interests in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss. |
| A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. |
| Taxation |
| A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
| Cash at bank and in hand |
| Cash at bank and in hand are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. |
| Financial Instruments |
| The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. |
| Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |
| Basic financial assets |
| Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. |

| Other financial assets |
| Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are subsequently carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, except that investments in equity instruments that are not publicly traded and whose fair values cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment. |
| Classification of financial liabilities |
| Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. |
| Basic financial liabilities |
| Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and loans from fellow group companies are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. |
| Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. |
| Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| Pensions |
| Contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed in the period to which they relate. |
